A Cable-Knit Burrow

I slipped past the patio door sweep away from the whistling evening wind and trotted straight across the living room rug! Tucked beside the armchair sat an open grey felt basket holding a thick, folded cable-knit cardigan. Gripping its chunky wooden toggle with both plush black mittens, I gave a hearty tug to part the springy ribbed collar. The deep braided wool opened into the softest hollow! I waddled right into the textured groove, nestling my plush fluff between the warm yarn ribs and tucking my dark cap over my tummy. With my carrot nose resting right against the smooth wood, I’m completely shielded from every stray draft!
